Naveen, If you want to have Perl doing your CGI stuff on your computer, then you need to have a web server working on your computer and you need to have it configured to work with Perl.
If you're using ActiveState, then chances are that you're using PWS or IIS, unfortunately. Get yourself a copy of Apache (http://www.apache.org), and study the documentation on how to install and configure it to work with Perl for CGI scripting.
